BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Xinhua): Brunei has announced that starting from Thursday, all foreign visitors arriving in Brunei must bear the cost of Covid-19 testings, which is at 1,000 Brunei dollars (US$700) per person.

According to Brunei's Ministry of Health on Thursday (April 16), the Brunei government will no longer bear the cost of Covid-19 testing for incoming foreign passengers and the costs of the 14-day isolation at designated government facilities will also be borne by foreigners entering Brunei, as announced earlier this month.
